Ayar, Bugrahan Yalvac Article Info Abstract Article History In this paper, we discuss the individuals’ roles, responsibilities, and routine activities, along with their goals and intentions in two different contexts—a Received: school science context and a university research context—using sociological 11 July 2015 lenses. We highlight the distinct characteristics of both contexts to suggest new design strategies for STEM learning environments in school science context. We Accepted: collected our research data through participant observations, field notes, group 11 October 2015 conversations, and interviews. Our findings indicate that school science practices were limited to memorizing and replicating science content knowledge through Keywords lectures and laboratory activities. Simple-structured science activities were a STEM education means to engage school science students in practical work and relate the STEM learning theoretical concepts to such work. Their routine activities were to succeed in Learning environment schooling objectives. In university research settings, the routine activities had School science interdisciplinary dimensions representing cognitive, social, and material Science communities dimensions of scientific practice. Such routine activities were missing in the practices of school science. We found that the differences between school and university research settings were primarily associated with individuals’ goals and intentions, which resulted in different social structures. In school settings, more authentic social structure can evolve if teachers trust their students and allow them to share the social and epistemic authorities through establishing mentorship.

  • AEROSPACE ENGINEERING 9.1 Definition
    Page 1 of 8 AEROSPACE ENGINEERING 9.1 Definition: Aerospace Engineering is the primary branch of engineering concerned with the research, design, development, construction, testing, science and technology of aircraft and spacecraft. It is divided into two major and overlapping branches: aeronautical engineering and astronautical engineering. Aeronautics deals with aircraft that operate in Earth's atmosphere, and astronautics deals with spacecraft that operate outside the Earth's atmosphere. Founded by dreamers and pioneers such as Konstantin Tsiolkovsky, the field reached its maturity with launching of first artificial satellite, first man in space and first step on the Moon. Aerospace Engineering deals with the design, construction, and study of the science behind the forces and physical properties of aircraft, rockets, flying craft, and spacecraft. The field also covers their aerodynamic characteristics and behaviors, airfoil, control surfaces, lift, drag, and other properties. Aeronautical engineering was the original term for the field. As flight technology advanced to include craft operating in outer space, the broader term "aerospace engineering" has largely replaced it in common usage. Aerospace engineering, particularly the astronautics branch, is often referred to colloquially as "rocket science", such as in popular culture. Overview Flight vehicles are subjected to demanding conditions such as those produced by changes in atmospheric pressure and temperature, with structural loads applied upon vehicle components. Consequently, they are usually the products of various technological and engineering disciplines including aerodynamics, propulsion, avionics, materials science, structural analysis and manufacturing. The interaction between these technologies is known as aerospace engineering. Because of the complexity and number of disciplines involved, aerospace engineering is carried out by teams of engineers, each having their own specialised area of expertise.

Some aerospace engineers work on projects that are related to national defense and thus require security clearances. U.S. citizenship may be required for certain types and levels of clearances. Education and Training Entry‐level aerospace engineers usually need a bachelor's degree. High school students interested in studying aerospace engineering should take courses in chemistry, physics, and mathematics, including algebra, trigonometry, and calculus. Bachelor’s degree programs are designed to take 4 years and include classroom, laboratory, and field studies in subjects such as general engineering principles, propulsion, stability and control, structures, mechanics, and aerodynamics, which is the study of how air interacts with moving objects.

  • Education in the Crosscutting Sciences of Aerospace and Computing
    JOURNAL OF AEROSPACE INFORMATION SYSTEMS Vol. 11, No. 10, October 2014 Education in the Crosscutting Sciences of Aerospace and Computing Ella M. Atkins∗ University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, Ann Arbor, Michigan 48109 DOI: 10.2514/1.I010193 The aerospace engineering pillars of structures, gas dynamics, and dynamics and control have rested long term on a firm foundation of calculus-based physics. Today’s aerospace engineer relies more on the computational device than the pencil and paper to innovate in theory and in practice. Educators and practitioners struggle with questions in how to improve computing knowledge and skills in the aerospace curriculum. Whereas most agree it would be unwise to compromise most content currently in place, opinions differ on which computing concepts students need to know. The aim of this paper is to highlight the importance of computing for aerospace and encourage critical thought about options for its inclusion into the required undergraduate curriculum. To do this, computer science is defined and common misconceptions are discussed. A review of computing content in aerospace curricula is presented. A pedagogical strategy that capitalizs on analogs between discrete and continuous-valued physical processes is proposed, including examples of how computational thinking can be meaningfully infused without loss of content in traditional aerospace courses. The paper concludes with related efforts to introduce computational thinking in kindergarten through 12th grades and higher education along with a discussion of insights computer science offers aerospace by revisiting questions from the introduction. I. Introduction EROSPACE engineering curricula are at a crossroads. The aerospace community recognizes that today’s and tomorrow’s aerospace A engineers will rely on computers for most of their work, ranging from analysis, to experimental data acquisition/processing, to real-time flight management.
